This is a cruel joke, Grian thinks as he squints at Scar’s backside. Scar’s completely oblivious even as Grian feels his pulse thrumming into tune with Scar’s. There’s an ache in him, itching and clawing at his heart, the tell-tale sign of a soulbond. It feels an extra limb, an odd jolt in his heart. Grian’s hungry. Scar’s hungry. Grian’s hurt. Scar’s hurt.
Grian knows. Scar doesn’t.
At first, Grian thinks it’s all a joke. But he watches Scar chase after allays and Jellie pandas and proudly proclaiming them as his soulmates and Grian’s heart sinks. Just a little bit.
Do you not care, Scar? Do you not care that we’re soulmates?
And Grian hates himself even more because it was him who weaved up this world. Him who designed this, crafted this from his visions, and the universe decides to give him and Scar another chance. Like the last two times wasn’t enough. The universe is nudging and pushing its creator into the same direction, time and time again— but for what? It all ends in tragedy anyway, rings of cacti and bloodied fists, so why bother? Why Scar, of all people, again?
So Grian sighs and picks up the dripstone. It’s his duty to look after Scar, it always has been. And Scar has to know. But Scar doesn’t care, doesn’t spare him a second glance, he cooes over his Jellies and then smiles at him, so oblivious yet so excited about his cats.
“Look directly at me,” Grian asks as he puts the dripstone on top of Scar. It falls down and hits Scar, and Grian winces at the sharp pain.
Scar doesn’t look at Grian. He’s gazing at his Jellies in adoration.
(They’re soulmates, and he doesn’t care, doesn’t care doesn’t care—)
“Scar!” Grian barks sharply, and he can’t even bring himself to be mad because that’s how Scar is. He’s falling into the same trap the universe set him up, he’s going to have to protect Scar again, and Scar’s disregarding himself as always, because that’s how they work, and—
Grian has one more dripstone. One final try.
“Ready? Look at me.”
And Scar’s green eyes meets Grian’s; curious, earnest, yet so oblivious.
“I’m looking!”
The dripstone falls. It lands.
Scar cries out.
Grian just sighs.
Matching blood splatters on their armour, a shared pain coursing through them. They’re mirrors of each other. Their eyes are locked. And Grian sees that Scar finally understands.
There’s a long pause.
“Oh,” Scar says softly. “Oh.”
(The universe murmurs to itself in glee, pleased that it’s done its job again.)

herbs found in a kitchen you can use for green magic
Tumblr media
Photography Source
Green witchery' is the path of the herbalist, naturalist, spiritual ecologist, medicine woman, curandera, healer. It is an ancient practice that we all contain stored within our DNA, and it essentially speaks to the spiritual connection between us humans and to the soul of nature. Tapping into our inner “green witchery” is a free-form, poetic and creative practice for anyone that seeks to explore a spiritual conversation with nature.
MAGICAL HERBS
If you’re already a kitchen witch, you might have the whole list already! I focused on classic herbs that most of us might already have, and although the list could be eternal, this is just the tip of the iceberg. If you don’t have many of these, I invite you to write down the spices and herbs you have and those you wish to incorporate in your practice to concoct magic within your sacred kitchen.

CENTRAL AND SOUTH AMERICAN PLANTS USED IN RITUAL
The story of magic within indigenous peoples all over Central and South America is strong and deep. Well, like all native traditions around the world. I will write an in-depth post soon on mystical plants of the rainforest that I grew very close with, often used in dietas, and ceremonies for spirit work. 
BOBINSANA – A powerful dream herb used for dream divination, clarity and for spiritual sight. It is often used during ‘dietas’ special spirit cleanses to ignite vision, and clarity of sight. Bobinsana can be used in dream work sachets, or even have the flower, branch or bark, near your pillow to induce prophetic dreams. 
COCA – Honored by indigenous peoples for thousands of years as a master plant. Analysis of mummified human remains in Chile indicate the use of coca as early as 1,000BC. Due to the isolation of its main ingredients to make cocaine occurred on the more modern side of history, the use as a whole plant slowly declined and its export was nearly prohibited. Coca is an energizer and powerful booster. Shamans fast using coca leaves using it to stay up during long nights of ceremony and vision quest for patients needing healing, and more. Coca leaves are used as an ofrenda (divine offering) during celebration ceremonies, funerals, practices, among other occasions.   
CACAO –The Mayas used cacao beans in ceremonial beverages during spiritual rituals   honoring the Mayan gods. The liquid liquid chocolate often combined with other medicines, was served and drank as a symbol for blood, and used to access the land of the ancestors. Although cacao is often found in every corner of the world now a days, its vital to use the right kind during ritual. Raw cacao beans or powder can be used to ignite spiritual sight and to enhance meditation. 
DAMIANA – A popular herb often thought of as an aphrodisiac, was used by Mexican indigenous peoples for a wide variety of things. It’s thought to be a rejuvnative and longevity plant, and regarded much like an adaptogen. Although this hasn’t been proven in the medical community, the plant has a powerful ability to ward off the body from damaging effects of stress. Magically this herb can be used to call in love, creativity, fertility and prosperity.
CALEA SACATECHICHI – Another essential used in Dreamword. Calea’s use is more oriented within Central America, where shamans have used it for psychic sight, interdimensional travel within dreams, visitation to the ancestral lands, and lucid dreaming. The plant is classically used in dreamwork, and used as a clarity booster to interpret the complex world of dreams. 
JUANILAMA – A classic garden plant in Central America used as a digestive aid and to lower high cholesterol. Often used as a smudging plant in ritual to clear the air from negativity and as a purifier. It’s often used energetically to help women heal from sexual trauma, or imbalances in the uterus.
RUDA – A master protector. Used to ward off evil spirits, bad energy and energetic intruders. Ruda is suggested to plant at the entrance of the home to prevent any unwanted energies.
HIERBA DE SAN JUAN (St. Johns Wort) – Used in ritual in many parts of the world, this masterful plant is thought to be a great protector. St Johns Wort is thought to bring in the light, and purify stagnation. It’s a heal-all in the literal and metaphorical sense and can be used for a wide variety of reasons.      
ROSE DE JAMAICA (Hibiscuis) – A classic found in many gardens in Central and South America, used to purify old love bonds that might have been damaging. This is a master healer to the second chakra, helping boost confidence, sensuality, fertility and love. Also used in love charms to call in soulmates. 
PALO SANTO - A tree bark often used to cleanse and dispel dark energies from the body, and space. Also used literally as an air purifier in ritual and when cleansing physical spaces. I've written a lot about Palo Santo, and can't stress enough how vital it is to carefully source it, not just for ethical reasons, but as it determines the potency and efficiency of its power. Palo Santo must die naturally, and lay in the ground for years to develop its mysterious oils. It's potent oils are what makes it an essential tree for deep purification. 
Tumblr media
OTHER SPIRIT TOOLS
SALT – While not an herb, salt is used to purify and withdraw negativity. Used in purification rituals and often placed in areas of the house that needs cleansing. 
SUGAR – Also not an herb per-se, but used for centuries to sweeten, metaphorically and literally. In Caribbean rituals, like hoodoo magick, it is used to sweeten one’s disposition; Used in love spells to sweeten a person’s heart.
CHARCOAL - Ayurvedic, Chinese medicine have used activated charcoal for thousands of years and its first recorded use dates back to 1550BC. Charcoal was used as the hearth to burn resins, herbs and magical blends, and catalyze the intention into action.
Tumblr media
COMMUNING WITH THE PLANT WORLD
Keep in mind this is just the tip of the iceberg of a very deep and mystical subject that has been a point of study for medicine peoples for thousands of years. Communing with plants is just one of the many avenues to discover and learn from the mystical workings of the Universe.
Plants are like radio receivers, inhaling and exhaling stellar influences that alchemize and create life. These forces are invisible to the human eye and include a wide array of subtle energies of a spiritual nature. Plants then alchemize light through photosynthesis, creating the finest medicine on a primal level that encompasses all the elementals expressed within cosmic law. Within the microcosm of plants, we can learn key aspects to our own nature, and by communing in receptive awareness with them, we are inviting the inner Seer to experience the inner workings of nature as a map to the cosmos.
